Measurability Structure.pdf

The proposal includes an alternative text for Section XI, a measurability structure for Annex C, and draft elements for a resolution to operationalize the structure.

Key Components:

1. High-level indicators: Measure progress towards the vision, including global burden of disease and environmental burden attributed to chemicals and waste.
2. Headline indicators: Capture the overall scope of strategic objectives, complemented by process or impact indicators.
3. Process indicators: Measure actions taken using readily available data.
4. Impact indicators: Measure changes in status reflecting the impact of chemicals and waste.
5. Other indicators: As decided, meeting criteria such as relevance, availability, and data comparability.

Measurability Structure:

1. Vision: High-level indicators measure progress towards the vision.
2. Strategic Objectives: Headline indicators support measuring progress against objectives.
3. Targets: Indicators track progress towards targets.
4. Implementation: Indicators measure actions taken and progress made.

Draft Resolution:

1. References the measurability structure as the basis for reporting progress.
2. Recognizes existing indicators as a starting point for assessing progress.
3. Invites relevant organizations to support operationalization.
4. Recommends developing terms of reference, a work plan, and an efficient working method, potentially including an Ad Hoc Technical Expert Group.
